Amazing shot again Hayward, you captured the moment really well, who is the guy? do you know? sure seems it would be a noisy place to catch some Z'ds but he seems happy enough.

What a fun shot presented excepionally well, thanks for showing Hayward.

One of your best Hayward, its almost like a baby's innocence, so unawares of what's going on and the background seals the deal.

I think it is called the photographer`s eye, to see a shot where everyone else would pass by without a second glance, you are the master.

It would have been cool to have seen a shot of the giant bear waking from a snooze and thinking where the hell am i ?? maybe it was a long sleep and you didnt have time to wait.
You captured that moment and the fountains as a back drop makes it so good, its going to be on my mind today
your an inspiration hayward, more soon please
cheers
mike
Thank you all so much for your kind and positive remarks .. there are about 50 tents set up just to the right of this fountain for a vegetables flea market .. he is from one of the tents just taking in some sun
